The Cailleach in "The Adventures of the Sons of Eochaid Mugmedon" (S3, #10)
Manage episode 351360940 series 2799527
In this episode, we’ll be exploring the Cailleach, the Celtic goddess of winter. She’s found in both mythology and folktales in Ireland and Scotland. She sometimes appears as the sovereignty goddess. I’ll read the Irish myth, “The Adventures of the Sons of Eochaid Mugmedon,” which addresses issues of gender, power, land, and kingship. Further, we’ll reflect on our cultural taboos around aging women and how they continue to impact us today.
